A HOtf lble Death.
On Sunday morning Mrs. Hlljah
Fronohlser, who resided with her hus
band near Trolchlersvllle, Washington
township, met with a horrible nccldent
which resulted In her death within an
hour after tho occurence. Mrs. F. was
alono In tho kitchen preparing breakfast
for her husband and family, tho former
ot whom was bringing tho horses home
from pasture. Mrs. Frouehelser was
subject Id falling fits, and whllo thus
alono was seized with a spell and fell
on the stove which was rod hot, ner
clothing took firo and commenced to
blaze briskly. Before help could arrived
she was fearfully scorched, some por
tions of her body being burned to a
crisp. Iler husband entered tho houso
while she was still covered with tho
flamos, nnddld all In his power to hasti
ly outen them. But all too lato. She
was perfectly helpless, and suffered
fearfully, when death put an end to her
pains. The funeral took placo Tues
day morning, and the remains wcro In
tered In the Frledcn's churchcometery.
A largo concourso ot relatives and
friends attended the funeral. 'News.

The Great Chicago Olreui,
Will exhibit in this borough on Thursday
afternoon and evening next, the 0th
Inst. Read what is said of this great
show by the Philadelphia papers, and
then get your fifty cents ready:
Tho Immen-to combination of circus,
menagerie, museum, aviary, balloon
ascension, Ac, spread Its canvas on
Fnlrmount Park Hill In this city yester
day, and It Is the biggest 'spread' ever
made In this city. We are somewhat
familiar with the sensational language
used in the advertisements of circus
companies, menageries, &c, and have
not been disappointed when we saw a
superior display upon the bill boards
than wo did within the canvas. Ia tho
present Instance wo are happily disap
pointed tho other way, liaird Howell
& Go's Show Is "all t Is cracked up to
be," The managers perform and ox
tail they advertise. Their show is
simply Immense, and Is well worth rid-
many miles to see. Tliey have the
largest collection ot wildanlmals, birds,
&c, ever exhibited in this city; and
their circus performance has never been
equaled iu our city. This fact became
apparent when the grand parade took
place in tho city In the morning and
the consequence was, their canvas, large
as it is, was utterly inadequate to ac
commodate the thousands who docked
to see the show, both in the afternoon
and evening, There were more people
garnered on rail-mount nm last even
ing than was ever before collected on
the same space In the city. So great
was the demand for tickets, and so
great the crowd inside tho tent, that the
performance had to be stopped; and
nearly five hundred people had to leave
their money being refunded. The
ticket boxes were closed and thousands
had to be turned away. There has
never been anything like It at any
similar show. Philadelphia Sunday

A l.lttle Girl Outraged.
We are In receipt, Says the Hazleton
Daily News ot tho 20th ult., of Intelli
gence of a most diabolical crime com
mitted Tuesday, by a fiend in human
shape, on tho mountain between Mil
ncsvllle and Butler Valley, the parti
culars which, as near as we could learn
them, are as follows: Mrs. Zlcgler, a
resident ot Mllnesvillc, and who Is now
lying alarmingly HI, has a little daugh
ter 9 years old, whom she wished, dur
ing her Illness, to havo remain with her
sister, who lives in tho Valley, and to
that end Tuesday placed her under the
protection of ayonng man who boarded
with her, and they together started for
the bouse ot the child's aunt. When
they reached the top of the mountain
the wretch assaulted the child, and ac
complished his hellish purpose, alter
which he departed for parts unknown.
Tho child is reported to be in a criti
cal condition.
The monster who committed ths re
volting crime is a man 35 or 40 years ot
age, and supposed to havo been at one
time a physician In Germauy. Ho is
still at large but officers are in pursuit.

Annum Itonort dftho Super
lntcmlent of tho Common
Schools nfCarhon County.
In submitting this annual roport ot
tho condition of tho public schools of
Carbon county, itisgratlfylng tobonblo
to say that tho larger portion of them
havo made commendablo progress dur
ing tho past year; but there Is still room
for further Improvement In tho best ot
them. Thero aro many things that
claim the attention ot teachers and
school officers, prominent among these
aro the diversity of text books in soma
districts; directors should adopt a uni
form series in their respective districts,
and Insist upon their use. There aro
still a number of school houses unfit for
school use, theso should bo replaced by
better ones. Furniture In somo houses
is so illy adapted to tho use It Is intend
ed for that It should bo removed and
better and suitable substituted for it.
Blackboard surface Is too limited in
many of tho schools, and so poor that
It Is almost useless; there Is no neces
sity for this when good surfaco can bo
made at almost the same cost of common
plastering. School grounds In some
cases aro too small, and, with but few
exceptions, ate entirely unimproved;
while houses and furniture are improved
corresponding Improvements should bo
made on the outside surroundings.
Directors should visit schools more
frequently than they have been in tho
habit of doing heretofore. See school
laws nnd decisions, page 49, Sec. 54.
Parents should visit schools as often as
they havo tho opportunity for doing
so, it would give encouragement to
teachers and children, and obviate
much of the fault-finding about parti
ality and dereliction of duty on the part
of teachers. Teachers would cnlargo
their sphere of usefulness and mako
their labors more pleasant and success
ful by frequent visits to tho' homes of
their pupils. This would afford teach
ers an opportunity of learning the homo
habits and training of their pupils, and
enlist tho co-operation ot parents in
securing better attendance.
Two new school houses were built
during the past year. Ono in Franklin
Township; this Is a good frame houso
furnished with good and convenient
seats, desks and blackboatd surface; the
other In the borough of Lehlghton, and
deserves more than a passing notice.
It Is situated on acommandlng position
at the north-west corner of tho publto
square, and Is a beautiful structure,
two stories high, with a Mansard roof,
which is equivalent to another story,
this Is surmounted by a neatly finished
cupola with a fine bell, a vane and the
letters showing tho cardinal points ot
tlio compass, mere aro eight school
rooms, each of which Is 20 x 30 feet.
and 15 feet high between floors and
ceilings, with plenty of good blackboard
surfaco there being about 150 sq. ft.
to each room. The entrances to the
different rooms are entirely separate
so that during Ingress and egress the
scnoinrs irom tno amerenc rooms never
come in contact with each other; they
are furnished with tho most Improved
patent seats nuu uesxs. un the third
Uoorls a large hall Intended to be used
for public entertainments. The rooms
are all ventilated ua the most Improved
plans, and heated by hot air from four
furnaces lu tho basement. Tho plot of
grouuu upon wuiuu it sianus 13 l'JU x
180 ft., surrounded by a neat substan
tial fence, painted and sanded. The
walks ore all paved. This is tho most
completely, planned ana finished school
building in tho county and cost (35,
000. It is a noble monument dedicated
to tho causo of common school education .
and reflects much honor and credlt;upon
tho directors who' In the face of strong
uppusiiiuu prujuctuu uuu consumated so
great a work.
Great care should bo exercised In tho
selection of school directors; much of the
success of the schools depeuds on the
manner In which directors dlschargo
their duties. There are many outside
Influences opperating upon and retard
ing the progress of the schools, such as
faultlindlug parents, speaking disre
spectful about teachers in presence ot
pupils, and encouraglDgchlldren lu acts
of disobedlanco. A teachers Influence Is
often destroyed In this way, audho falls
because ho is not properly sustained
and encouraged by directors, a word ot
encouragement or a sympathizing look
from a friend at the right tlmo often
produces wonderful results.
The schools at Summit Hill could be
much Improved by grading them more
strictly.
Penn Forest Is an unfortunate district;
it embraces a large area sparsely popu
lated, so that they aro obliged to keep
up six schools for the acommodatlon of
about one hundred and fifty children;
and this necessitates a fifteen mill tax In
order to keep the schools open four
months with low priced teachers.
Tho Annual 6'ounty Iusltute was
held at Mauch Chunk, In tho lattor
part ot November. It was well attend
ed by teachers and other friends ot edu
cation. District Institutes wero held only In
a few districts. These important aids
in promoting the cause of education anQ
in elevating tho teachers' profession
should not be neglected by teachers and
school officers.
The examinations of teachers and
school vi8tatlons wero conducted on the
same plan as stated in former reports.
My thanks are due to directors, teach
ers and other friends of education for
aid and kindness extended to me In the
discharge of my duties.
